60+ year old thread.

Can you get the senior discount now

 

Morning kids my May is doctor appointment month. Yesterday, Friday and to top it all off, next Tuesday I get the film crew visiting where the sun don’t shine

 

Sigh.. bit the bullet and bought a wheelchair for my wife... for those long treks through stores, parking lots, etc. It came in a big box already assembled (whew). I haven't un-boxed it yet... I'll know when she's ready. Losing one's mobility sucks big time.

 

Good Morning

Up early thanks to a very bored cat that thought being on full zoomie mode all night would keep him entertained !!!!!

 

Sorry to hear about this, being proactive about the situation is really important

 

Sorry to hear !!!!

 

Good morning all.

 

A little at a time gets the job completed. Are you going to salvage the wood for future projects?

I struggle to get into the 6 to 8K step range every day. I still use a cane and I might always need one due to some back issues. I am walking more than I have in quite a few years.

Welcome to the thread. Newbies fill up the cooler to your right with your favorite beverage. Stay off the fancy dan rocker on the porch, the owner get upset if anyone sits in his rocker.

Good morning. Enjoying Casevill MI and relaxing for a few days. Yesterday we took walks on the breaker walls in Caseville and Port Austin. The sunset on Monday was spectacular.

 

I've needed a cane twice over the last few years; in 2019 I got knocked over by a horse on to jagged ice and broke my left fibula, it wasn't the horses fault, he tripped on some of that jagged ice and as he was catching his footing he knocked me over. While I was still on my old-school wooden crutches (from when I broke my right leg back in 2003) I found a flea market in Concord, NH and bought an old-school wooden cane and used it during my recovery.

Then as mentioned above, in late 2022 I had arthroscopic knee surgery on my right knee; I was once again non-weight bearing, this time for six weeks, and used the crutches until it was time to dig the cane out of the closet. I ended up using the cane for well over a year; at first all of the time, then only part-time, then it came along for the ride whenever I knew I was going to be on my feet a lot, and now..., back in the closet.

 

Morning 60+
Put our docks in the lake last week and my groin and back have been paying for it ever since .

 

Have you found the cause?

 

And a great age it is Michael @Metalskool . Welcome to the porch. Many fine folks here and we always look forward to some new folks to add to the topics. Enjoy

 

Funny video , listen to the lady who is filming one of their Bulls named Redford who weighs 1700lbs . This bull is very unpredictable and angry . Rufus the other Bull is even bigger and weighs over 2200lbs

Not to worry, help is on the way

 

Morning all:

Welcome to the porch Michael!

Sorry to hear that also.


Raining here the last few days, can't get anything done outside, maybe will get the spring haircut today.

 

It's OK, Chuck. He'll have plenty of time to nap today!

 

It sure is cheaper than a wife or hiring a maid!
Going to get very interesting down the road with the combination of robotics and cognitive computers. hope it's not the equivalent of leaving the nuclear genie out of the bottle!

 

And it doesn’t talk back

 

I just heard Gunny making funny sounds in a warm patch of sunlight on the floor . He's in recharge mode !!!!!! . This is not a good sign he's reactivating his power levels !!!!!

 

Solar, huh?
